Preconfigured Multi-Axis System for Industrial Applications
Optimizing Design and Development Time
Reducing design and development time is a decisive competitive factor in precision automation. This is why companies striving for optimum performance in areas such as laser material processing or metrology should rely on a powerful, well-configured system. PI supports this approach with the configurable Integrated Multi-Axis System (IMAS). The globally proven, modularly configurable system is based on a standardized, integrated approach for different expansion stages and comes configured and fully tuned including controls. The choice of several performance classes makes the system suitable for numerous applications and budget requirements. All this enables PI to offer a reliably available solution for efficiently setting up and successfully integrating new processes.
